Reiki can be given as a 'hands on' treatment or at distance (any distance). Please note: By 'hands-on' we can mean literally that the hands of the 'channeller' actually touch the (clothed) recipient or that they hover over the recipient. Also, and fascinatingly: anything can have Reiki channelled into it: animal, vegetable or mineral.
What one experiences during a Reiki treatment varies somewhat from person to person. Treatments are typically very relaxing, and recipients often fall into a lovely drifting state, or actually fall asleep. These states may be accompanied by dreams, floating sensations, warmth, tingling or a general sense of security and peace. Sometimes, if the healing is on a mental level, the recipient may shed a few tears as the emotional pain is released. This will be followed by calmness and later by a sense of increased energy as the body is freed from the weight of the stored distress. At the end of the treatment, one feels refreshed with a more positive, balanced outlook.
REIKI - HOW IS THE TREATMENT ADMINISTERED
The Reiki system of healing is a technique for transmitting this subtle energy to yourself and others through the hands into the human energy system. Reiki restores energy balance and vitality by relieving the physical and emotional effects of unreleased stress. It gently and effectively opens blocked meridians and chakras, and clears the energy bodies, leaving one feeling relaxed and at peace.
That 'the mind affects the body and the body affects the mind' has long been accepted in the world of alternative/complementary therapy. It seems that this ancient concept is being confirmed by today's science.
And this is where Reiki comes in. Reiki simply taps into the natural force that 'vivifies' (quickens and enlivens) everything. Reiki treatment raises the vibrational frequency of the recipient and clears blockages that disrupt the energy flow, allowing healing to begin at a cellular level. The energy supply is limitless. It is unaffected by the channeller and flows through him/her to wherever needed in the recipient. The nature of Reiki is that it can only be beneficial.
Reiki is an accepted form of 'alternative therapy', available and practiced widely, including its recommendation and provision by many 'mainstream' hospitals and clinics across the western world. Medicine and science recognize that the human body is made of energy and that blockages in this energy create discomfort or disease. Helping to free blocked energy, reducing stress, and providing relaxation are a few of Reiki’s characteristics. This helps to create an environment in the body that fosters healing.
REIKI - WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL LIKE
In a standard treatment, Reiki energy flows from the practitioners hands into the client. A Reiki treatment is given fully clothed. The Reiki recipients' privacy, modesty and dignity are always respected. For enhanced relaxation, the recipient is usually lying down, but could be sitting or even standing. There are seven classic positions where generally the practitioner will place his/her hands on or over the recipient. These positions equate to the seven main 'chakra'areas of the body, which feature in various Eastern mind-and-body and spiritual concepts. These include positions around the head and shoulders, the stomach, and feet. Other, more specific positions may be used based on the clients needs. Each position is held for three to ten minutes depending on how much Reiki the client needs at each position. The whole treatment usually lasts between 45 and 90 minutes.
